Peachy Streusel

After my husband was laid off in June, Life has been kicking us nearly in every turn. Since I have to be even more frugal than before, I decide to eat off of my fridge, freezer, and pantry. So far, it's been pretty easy.

I came up with the peachy streusel recipe when I had the urge to bake something sweeter. A can of organic peach jumped out from the rest of pantry items. So I thought, "why not bake it in a dish and made some sort of streusel as topping." Done!!!

The canned peaches were a bit sour, so the flavor balanced well with the sweet streusel. My kids and I had it for breakfast. When I get a chance, I'd like to bake a cake and top them with these peachy streusel. It sounded like a winner combo for breakfast or snack.

I haven't tested this recipe with fresh peaches. But definitely give it a try and let me know. Feel free to double or triple the recipe to feed a big crowd.
